362 Pausan. III. 2. 7. Phlegon Trallianus ap. Euseb. Arm. p. 130.
According to Strabo VIII. p. 365 A. however it was conquered by
Agis. Concerning a war between Sparta and its periœci in the time of
Lycurgus, see Nicol. Damas. fragm.
363 Pausan. III. 22. 9.
364 See above, ch. 3. § 4.
365 This is now evident from the restoration of the fragment of Ephorus
in Strabo VIII. p. 364 D. Χρῆσθαι δὲ ΛΑΙ ΜΕΝ ὀ[χυρώματι, Ἐπιδαύρῳ
(or Γυθείῳ) δὲ ἐμπορίῳ διὰ τὸ] εὐλίμενον, ΑΙΓΥΙ δὲ πρὸς τοὺς
πολεμίους [ἐπιτειχισμῷ, ταύτην] γὰρ ὁμορεῖν τοῖς κύκλῳ [πολεμίοις],
ΦΑΡΙΔΙ δὲ [εἰς συνόδους] ἀπὸ τῶν ἐντος ἀσφάλειαν ἐχούσῃ. Polybius
II. 54. 3. calls Αἰγῦτις a boundary-district of Sparta, where no
alteration is required. See Meursius ad Lycophr. 831.
366 The νόμος Ἀμυκλαῖος according to Nicol. Damasc.
367 See Steph. Byz. and Pausanias. The Διοσκοῦροι Λαπέρσαι are derived
from this town.
368 Ὑαμεία πόλις Μεσσηνίων τῶν πέντε, Stephanus Byz. Compare Pausan. IV.
14. 3. Μεσόλα πόλις Μεσσήνης μία τῶν πέντε. Νικόλαος τετάρτῳ,
Stephanus. From this Ephorus in Strabo VIII. p. 361 C. should be
thus restored, ὤστε τὴν Στενύκλαρον μὲν ἐν τῷ μέσῳ τῆς χώρας παύτης
κειμένην ἀποδεῖξαι βασίλειον αὑτῷ τῆς βασιλείας, πέμψαι δὲ ἐς Πύλον
τε καὶ Ῥίον [καὶ Μεσόλαν καὶ] Ὑαμῖτιν ποιήσοντας ἰσονόμους πάντας
τοῖς Δωριεῦσι τοὺς Μεσσηνίους. Compare Μεσόλα καθήκουσα εἰς τὸν
μεταξὺ κόλπον τοῦ Ταυγέτου καὶ τῆς Μεσσηνίας, Strab. VIII. p. 360;
Ῥίον ἀπεναντίον Ταινάρου, ibid.
369 The same termination may be observed in the name of the ancient
Laconian city Ἱππό-λα, Pausan. III. 26. 6. Steph. Byz.; and in the
ancient gentile name of Argos, Ἀργό-λας.
370 See Herodotus, Pausanias, Cicero de Divin. II. 43.
371 Cicero ut sup.
372 See above, p. 90. note n. [Transcriber’s Note: This is the footnote
to “Epidaurus,” starting “Pausan. III. 16. 5.]”
373 See Valckenaer. ad Theocrit. Adoniaz. p. 266.
374 Plutarch. Lycurg. 2, 3.
375 Plutarch. Lycurg. 2. Lac. Apophth. p. 234.
376 From what is not clear, though probably from the Μέσση of the
Homeric Catalogue, the position of which is however quite uncertain,
since it is not connected with the _city_ of Messene.
_ 377 Orchomenos_, p. 366. The territory of Pylos had, according to the
tradition in Pausan. IV. 15. 4. once extended as far as Καπροῦ σῆμα,
near Stenyclarus.
378 Cresphontes, as well as Aristomenes, were names in Messenia in late
days, Boeckh Inscript. No. 1291.
379 Ap. Strab. p. 633 B. He was one of the Colophonians who had settled
in Smyrna.
380 Strabo, p. 355 D. Pausanias IV. 3. 3. and others speak too generally
of the expulsion of the Nestoridæ.
381 Pausan. IV. 18. 1. IV. 23. 1. Pindar Pyth. V. 70. is not so
accurate; Λακεδαίμονι ἀν Ἄργει τε καὶ ζαθέᾳ Πύλῳ ἔνασσεν ἀλκᾶντας
Ἡρακλέος ἐκγόνους Ἀἰγιμιοῦ τε (Ἀπόλλων).
